I'm happy to share that I was given a 93% on the Connecticut League of Conservation Voters Environmental Scorecard, which covers bills related to clean energy, pollution, wildlife, environmental protection, and more. Protecting and preserving our environment is becoming more important every day, and I am very proud to have received such a high rating from this organization!

Thank you to everyone who attended our Groton Town Hall this week! It was great to speak with you all and to hear what is on your mind. It is important conversations like these that influence the work I do for you at the Capitol!

Please join the City of New London, Connecticut on Saturday, July 12 for an epic celebration of all things New London — capped off with New England’s largest fireworks display over the Thames River, thanks Mashantucket Pequot Tribal Nation!

Enjoy live music on two outdoor stages and at venues across the New London Cultural District — good vibes guaranteed!

Happy Friday, and happy Independence Day!

I hope you'll join me in taking a moment to reflect on the true meaning of this important holiday. Independence Day is not just about fireworks and cookouts – its' about honoring the ideals of freedom, democracy, and the generations of Americans who have fought to protect them.

Several new laws that were passed during the 2025 legislative session take effect on Tuesday, July 1. Please click here to read about some of them!

Due to an anticipated stretch of high temperatures, the state is activating its Extreme Hot Weather Protocol, effective at noon on Sunday, June 22. The protocol will remain in effect through at least 8pm on Wednesday, June 25.

This is the first time this year that the protocol is being activated. The current forecast calls for temperatures to exceed 90 degrees over this period, with a heat index that could range from between 100 to 105 degrees.

Deep gratitude to State Representative Corey Paris, State Representative Kate Farrar, Commissioner Beth Bye, Governor Ned Lamont, our amazing legislative colleagues , and the powerful voices of early childhood advocates across Connecticut!
After decades of tireless work 🛠️🔥, we’ve made HISTORY by passing HB 5003 — creating a groundbreaking early childhood endowment that positions Connecticut as a national leader in supporting families and expanding access to quality child care .
This is more than a policy win — it’s a transformative milestone for generations to come.
Thank you ALL for being part of this game-changing victory — the future is brighter because of YOU!
